Bedstu Lita Reviews:

Positive Reviews:

I am a true size 7 (in all shoe types) and I am with the Aunt Bettie and Aunt Rose which I absolutely love however, the Spy (1½ sizes too big), Funky (too small and does not have a zipper on the side for easy access), Butterfly (1 size too big), and Retreat (too wide) that I have ordered through different websites were all disappointing. With the Lita though, the fit is perfect! Exactly what I have been looking for. A men's style oxford fit for a woman. I bought the brown which is exactly as pictured and did not go with the black because I knew of Bed Stu's odd distress and odor as the previous reviewer mentioned. The slight down side is that when I tried it on the right shoe's leather felt thinner than the left (which is not surprising as Bed Stu shoes are hand-made so not one shoe is alike) but it also felt looser as if it had been previously tried on multiple times. It does not look like it has been worn and it could be just me but I am keeping it nonetheless. I would definately exchange it for another pair in the exact same size if more were in stock though. All in all, I am in love with this shoe and I hope they continue to make more oxfords with the same fantastic fit which is oh so hard to find. Money well spent!

I love these shoes! They're soft and buttery on the inside -- a dream to put on and walk in. Have not had a moment of discomfort wearing these. They're not too masculine-looking (one of my concerns), and I happen to really like the whitish sort of "distressed" finish that is over the entire shoe. I've worn these with dress pants for work, with skirts, and with jeans -- they're perfect with anything. I am typically a size 8.5 or 9 and my second toes are longer than my big toes. The 8.5 fits just right; my toes don't feel crammed or pinched at all. I ordered a 9 as well, just to be safe, and found that the heel was slightly too large. I would buy another pair of Bedstu shoes in a heartbeat -- the quality and comfort are outstanding. Thank you, Zappos, for your shipping and returns policies! I loved being able to order both sizes to compare and not have to pay to send one back.

These shoes are exactly what I wanted. I love the style, but the fit is what is truly noteworthy. The leather is so soft and the shoes fit comfortably right out of the box. I have worn them without socks all day and they are totally comfortable. No pinching, no blisters. The leather seems to give to my foot making it seem like a second skin. It is clear that a lot of craftsmanship went into making these high quality shoes. Lita has quickly become my a favorite. The distressed style looks unique and vintage. I can't wait to buy another pair of bedstus. I couldn't be happier with my purchase.

Negative Reviews:

This shoe arrived looking like it had been rubbed with some kind of white paste/polish, on top of the black leather. It also smelled funny. I tried it on, and happily, it fit great. So, I took a damp rag to try to remove the white stuff -- and the rag removed some of that, but also (disturbingly) the black color. There were patches of light brown leather showing...ugh. I'm debating returning these, but like the fit, so I might just see what black shoe polish will do. I think the customer needs to know what kind of "distressing" this shoe goes through. Beware -- it's not a black oxford, and it has a smell reminiscent of the printmaking studio I used to work in. Vaguely oily and industrial.
